In the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Phelps’ eight gold medals broke the 36-year-old record that was once considered inaccessible by swimmer Mark Spitz. Phelps participated in men’s 400m individual medley, men’s 200m individual medley, men’s 100m butterfly, men’s 200m butterfly, men’s 200m freestyle, men’s 4x100m freestyle relay, men’s 4x200m freestyle relay and men’s 4x100m medley relay successively at the Beijing Olympic Games, winning eight gold medals, breaking seven world records, and gaining fourteen individual medals.

　　BEIJING, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) Title: Swimming Inventory: The United States and Australia are "gender imbalance" and the China Navy is no longer "water"

　　Author: Lu Chunyan

　　On August 17th, "prodigy" michael phelps led the American team to win the gold medal in the men’s 4×100 medley relay final, and won his eighth gold medal in Beijing. This marks the end of the swimming event in Beijing, which is second only to the 46 gold medals in track and field. The "Water Cube" of this Olympic Games has turned into a "Water Cube", and the world record has been labeled as "fragile". The United States and Australia have their own gains in competing for hegemony, and the China Navy has also seen hope in its progress.

　　"Yang Prosperity and Yin Decline" VS "Yin Prosperity and Yang Decline" The United States and Australia strive for hegemony and "gender imbalance"

　　Compared with the Athens swimming event, the gorgeous performance of the American swimming team in the Water Cube can be described as "dominating the world". The results of 12 gold medals, 9 silver medals and 9 bronze medals left Australia’s 6 gold medals, 6 silver medals and 8 bronze medals far behind.

　　However, Australia, suppressed by the United States, should also be respected. After all, today’s swimming world has the strength to challenge the American team, and it is Australia. The remaining 14 gold medals were divided among 11 countries, with Britain, Germany and Japan each taking two, and China, Brazil, Tunisia, South Korea, the Netherlands, Italy, France and Zimbabwe each taking one.

　　The distribution of gold medals in the American swimming delegation showed a situation of "Yang flourishes and Yin declines". Male athletes won 10 of the 12 gold medals, and they monopolized five-eighths of the Olympic men’s swimming events under the leadership of Phelps. Only coughlin and Sony saved a little face for American female swimmers.

　　Unlike the United States, which relies on men’s events, Australia has completely embarked on the "female route". All six gold medals in the "Water Cube" were won by female athletes, while male athletes only got three silver medals and three bronze medals. Compared with the American team, Australia’s "Yin flourishes while Yang declines" seems to be more thorough.

　　"Yin flourishes and Yang declines" VS "Yang flourishes and Yin declines", and there is a gender imbalance between the United States and Australia. In August, a gender war was staged at the National Aquatics Center.

　　World records are labeled as "fragile" and old records are turned into rarities.

　　The Water Cube staged a "war epic" against the "world record" from the first match day when two world records were born in the four finals. Seven of the eight gold medals won by the American "prodigy" rewrote the world record, and even the only gold medal in the 100m butterfly, which was "lighter" than the other seven gold medals, was almost the same as the world record. What’s more, Zimbabwe’s Coventry started a record-breaking trip in the preliminaries.

　　The birth of one new world record after another makes the audience seem to have formed "aesthetic fatigue" on the records, and a large number of newly released records really test everyone’s memory. All of a sudden, those records that have been preserved have become rare, and they can still be "immune" when such large-scale good results are released, which shows the preciousness of these old records.

　　Men make history. China swims in the "Water Cube" and sees hope.

　　China swimming, dormant in the downturn, finally saw the hope of recovery in the "Water Cube". One gold, three silvers, two bronzes, three 4th, one 5th, one 7th and one 8th in this Olympic Games are enough for China to get a performance score of 80 points. All these have become the best evidence that Zhang Yadong, the head coach, pointed out that China Water Army began to walk out of the trough.

　　Liu Zige, Jiao Liuyang and other young players have changed the situation in 2007, and Zhang Lin’s silver medal has also shown us the progress of male athletes.

　　The most significant one is the silver medal in the men’s 400-meter freestyle from Zhang Lin. Even in Barcelona, the most splendid swimming place in China, the male swimmers from China failed to grab a gold and a half silver. Zhang Lin won the first medal in Olympic history for men’s swimming in China with his own efforts and national support.

　　However, we should also see that China’s swimming strength is still far from the collective advantage of the United States and Australia, and the highlights are only concentrated in three or two events. Moreover, China’s swimming does not have the domineering and winning strength of the United States and Australia.

　　However, I still believe that "a single spark can start a prairie fire", and I hope that China Swimming, which finds a breakthrough point, can make a name for itself in the Olympic swimming field through its own efforts.

　　"God" Phelps, the first man in the centennial Olympic Games, ascended the throne in Beijing.

　　After winning the NBA championship three times in a row, the media commented that "Jordan is God wearing a jersey and playing"; Once again won the NBA championship for three consecutive times, the media commented that "even God can’t beat Jordan in his jersey". Therefore, even with bare arms, God may not be able to win eight gold medals in an Olympic Games, but the "prodigy" did it.

　　Michael phelps seems to have come to Beijing to break the record. He has seven world records in eight competitions, a single Olympic gold medal record with eight gold medals and an individual Olympic gold medal record with fourteen gold medals. Phelps is proving himself to be the "Water Cube" and the king of Olympic history with figures that others can’t match.

　　When Bolt broke the world record and won the 100-meter new Olympic champion, the media who liked the new and hated the old questioned the ownership of "the best athlete in Beijing Olympic Games". In fact, this is a very simple arithmetic problem. Can’t nine records beat one record? The record of eight gold medals of "prodigy" was accumulated in the Olympic Games for a hundred years, but who can say that the record road of 9.69 seconds can be kept fresh in a hundred years?

　　For 23-year-old Phelps, the Beijing Olympic Games is probably just a "walk" of his brilliant career, because he will be 27 years old in four years, which is the best age for professional athletes. At that time, he will give the world the expectation of several Olympic gold medals. (End)

Two sets of contradictory data: year-on-year decline and year-on-year increase of lottery tickets …

Just now, the Ministry of Finance announced that the national lottery sales in December last year was 53.284 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 8.565 billion yuan and a year-on-year decrease of nearly 14%.

According to the data, the total lottery sales amount increased last year, and the growth rate was as high as 36.5%.

-Why did the lottery ticket, whose sales trend rose as a whole, suddenly get cold in December?

We may find clues from a lottery incident in Jiangxi.

Let’s review the 220 million yuan lottery event in Jiangxi.

On December 2, 2023, a lottery player in Jiangxi spent 100,000 yuan to buy 220 million yuan in the lottery, becoming an unprecedented lucky dog.

This lottery event soon became a hot spot. Then, it is a constant voice of doubt, followed by! !

There are many doubts about the winning event, and public opinion has focused on at least three points:

First, who will suddenly spend 100,000 yuan to buy lottery tickets? This doesn’t make sense in the logic of normal people’s thinking. Even the old lottery players would not be so bold.

Second, how did the winners "accurately bet" the same group of numbers, and they got 220 million yuan in luck. Look carefully, that is, betting on the same group of numbers, without avoiding the risk of betting at all, that is, putting eggs in the same basket.

Third, the grand prize triggered risk control, and you can receive all the bonuses of more than 220 million yuan without paying taxes. This is not an insider, and it is estimated that no one really knows this rule.

On January 26th, 2024, the financial sector reported that Everbright Garbo issued a change announcement, and the deviation of the closing price of the company’s stock trading in three consecutive trading days from January 24th to January 26th, 2024 totaled more than 20%, which was an abnormal fluctuation of stock trading according to the relevant provisions of the Trading Rules of Shanghai Stock Exchange. The Company disclosed the Annual Performance Forecast for 2023 on January 25th, 2024. It is estimated that the net profit attributable to the owners of the parent company will be around-2,000,000 yuan in 2023, and the net profit attributable to the owners of the parent company after deducting non-recurring gains and losses will be around-2,005,910,000 yuan. Due to the fact that the management fee income of the project under management of Everbright Anshi, a holding subsidiary of the company, is less than expected, and the "big asset management" business is still in the cultivation stage, the goodwill generated by the company’s acquisition of 51% equity of Everbright Anshi is under the pressure of impairment, and the impairment loss of goodwill will be accrued in 2023.

Alpine skiing originated in Europe, also known as alpine skiing, and is known as "the jewel in the crown of the Winter Olympics". In the 4th Winter Olympics in 1936, alpine skiing was listed as the first event in the Winter Olympics. The alpine skiing competition in Beijing Winter Olympics will be held at the National Alpine Ski Center in Yanqing, and more than 300 athletes will participate in the competition.

The steep track produced 11 gold medals.

Eleven gold medals will be produced in the alpine skiing competition of Beijing Winter Olympics, in which men and women will have five events, namely downhill, super giant slalom, giant slalom, slalom and all-around, and there will also be mixed team events. Although all events depend on the athletes’ finish time, according to the competitive characteristics of each event, downhill, super giant slalom and all-around are "speed events", while giant slalom and slewing are "technical events".

The Final Edition of the Competition Schedule of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics released recently shows that there are 11 competition days in alpine skiing, and a gold medal is produced every day. The first gold medal comes from the men’s downhill, the champion will be produced on February 6, and the mixed team gold medal in the final event will be produced on February 19.

In the alpine skiing competition, athletes need to challenge the steep track, and the fastest sliding speed can reach 150 km/h. Alpine skiing is one of the most vulnerable events to the weather. Temperature, wind speed and visibility will directly affect athletes’ technical performance. Because of the changeable weather in mountainous areas, alpine skiing events are often postponed or cancelled. Sometimes alpine skiing competitions will be held in heavy snow and fog, and it is difficult for athletes to slide down and turn at high speed on the track with changeable terrain under the condition of poor sight. Facing the unfamiliar track, athletes should get up their courage every time they start.

In the competition, finding the fastest route, taking risks and using technology correctly are equally important. Skiing efficiency is the most important in such technical projects as slalom and giant slalom. Athletes need to keep their skis forward and their calves parallel in the competition, and their skis need to be changed frequently and quickly. At the same time, you need to keep balance and try to keep your body in the middle of the snowboard.

In speed events, it is particularly important to be familiar with the track. At the Beijing Winter Olympics, one of the major challenges faced by the contestants is their unfamiliarity with the track. Due to the epidemic situation, the track of Yanqing National Alpine Ski Center failed to hold a test race.

Stars compete for "the jewel in the crown"

As the "jewel in the crown of the Winter Olympics", alpine skiing shows the charm of skiing in the subtle combination of speed and skill. Like track and field and swimming events of the Summer Olympics, the alpine skiing venue of the Winter Olympics has always been crowded with stars.

The Czech Republic will send the largest ever Winter Olympics delegation to the Beijing Winter Olympics, and the number is expected to exceed 130. Alpine skier estelle Ledecka is the brightest star in the Czech Winter Olympics delegation. At the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, Ledecka won the gold medals in the parallel slalom of snowboarding and the super slalom of alpine skiing, becoming the first athlete in history to win the gold medal with two different instruments in one Winter Olympics. In the super giant slalom, Ledecka’s main opponents will be Swiss Gute behrami and Italian Sophia Gogia.

American Michella Schifflin is also a popular skier in alpine skiing. Schifflin, born in 1995, as the gold medal winner of women’s slalom in Sochi Winter Olympics and women’s giant slalom in Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, is the athlete who has won the largest number of World Cup races among active players. At the Beijing Winter Olympics, Schifflin’s goal was to attack the record that Janeka Kostrich won four medals (including three gold medals) at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. On the men’s side, Marco Oldmat of Switzerland is the favourite to win the grand slalom in alpine skiing. This season, he showed his dominance in the World Cup of this event, and Oldmat also had the opportunity to compete for the championship in the super slalom.

Alpine skiing is not only a stage for top athletes to win the pearl, but also a breakthrough for many countries to become attached to the Winter Olympics.

Bolivia, located in South America, will send two athletes, Brett Firth and Gronlund, to compete in alpine skiing and cross-country skiing in the Beijing Winter Olympics. Mauricio Belmont Biehuan, Chargé d ‘affaires of the Bolivian Embassy in China, said that Bolivia sent a delegation to participate in the Beijing Winter Olympics and released a clear signal that Bolivia fully supported the hosting of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. "Ice and snow sports are relatively small in Bolivia, and it is very important for us to have athletes to represent Bolivia in the Beijing Winter Olympics."

Saudi Arabia will send two alpine skiers to participate in the Beijing Winter Olympics, which is the first time that Saudi Arabia and the GCC countries have sent athletes to participate in the Winter Olympics. According to the official Twitter account of the Saudi Olympic Committee, Saudi alpine skiers Salman Howaish and Fayik Abdi filled this historical gap.

China realizes the whole project participation.

China Alpine Skiing Project has a weak foundation, but it has developed by leaps and bounds under the encouragement of the Beijing Winter Olympics. In the 11 events of alpine skiing in the Beijing Winter Olympics, the China team participated in all events. Team China will send two men and two women to participate in alpine skiing competition, and will also team up to participate in mixed team competitions.

Judging from the previous Winter Olympics, alpine skiing, a basic sport, used to be the only way for China team to participate in two or three technical events with one quota for men and one quota for women allocated by the International Snow Federation, and its performance was also relatively backward.

In order to overcome the three speed events of downhill, super slalom and all-around in the Winter Olympics and achieve the goal of "all-event participation", with the strong support of the Winter Games Center of the General Administration, the alpine skiing national training team set up a speed event team in 2017, with technical athletes as well as events, to fully impact the Olympic qualifications of downhill, super slalom and all-around. Athlete of alpine skiing technical events and speed events need to face great difficulties and constantly conquer the speed limit and the extreme environment. Therefore, in the preparation cycle of Beijing Winter Olympics, the athletes of China Alpine Skiing National Training Team have to deal with triple challenges in technology, physical fitness and psychology.

Our athletes bravely accepted this challenge and shouldered the burden of "participating in all events" in the snow-based major events without hesitation. In the process of preparing for the sprint, the team members experienced setbacks and faced the bottleneck period, but everyone became more and more frustrated, strengthened their beliefs and worked hard. Even in the final process of grabbing Olympic points, many registered events were cancelled due to weather and other reasons, and the competition plan was forced to be adjusted. Athletes can quickly adjust their mentality, cherish the few competition opportunities, always be firm, persistent and determined, and their competitive state has been continuously improved in preparation, and finally the whole project has been realized. (From January 25th, China Sports Daily, 03 edition)

　　On February 14th, the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Hanlingou, Qunli Village, Lianhe Town, Zhongjiang County, was particularly lively. More than 260 villagers had a dam feast together on the newly-built social road. The whole village was full of 24 dining tables, and Tan Lichun, a villager of this village, invited them to have a group dinner.

　　Tan Lichun is the chairman of Jiangsu Xinhongtai Electromechanical Co., Ltd., and his tenacious will and hard-working spirit have been honed from a poor life. After graduating from technical secondary school, he was assigned to an enterprise to repair aircraft engines. After two years of work, he resigned and went to work in Guangdong. However, the road to success was not smooth. After half a year, I returned to Deyang to work because I felt that there was no future. With his own skills and hard-working spirit, Tan Lichun won the position of an engineer in a home appliance enterprise and began to contact mechanical and electrical enterprises all over the country. After accumulating various experiences, he resigned again and went to Jiangsu to start a business.

　　"In 2006, I established the first Hongtai electromechanical company. The road to entrepreneurship is full of hardships, but it is also very lucky. After 12 years of hard work, the enterprise is now on the right track … "Tan Lichun tells the story of starting a business.

　　After starting a successful business, he always cares about the development of his hometown and the life of the villagers, and returns to his hometown every year. When he sees that the village road that he often passes through when he was young has not been fundamentally changed, his heart is extremely restless. In 2017, when he learned that Murakami planned to build roads, but there was still a funding gap, he generously donated 100,000 yuan. "In the second half of 2017, due to the rising price of road building materials and insufficient planned funds, he decided to pay for the gap. Now that the road has been repaired, Boss Tan plans to invest 100,000 yuan to install 50 solar street lamps … "Li Fuxiao interjected.

　　When Tan Lichun went home for the Spring Festival this time, he learned that there was still a funding gap in the construction of village roads, so he decided to pay for it again, and at the same time he was going to pay for the installation of solar street lamps. In order to repay the villagers, on the 29th of New Year’s Day, he invited a chef and put on a dam feast to celebrate the New Year with the villagers.

　　"In the past, we only had dirt roads from Hanlingou to the town and neighboring villages. Since the village roads hardened, it has facilitated life and production, and agricultural and sideline products can also be shipped out." Villager Zhang Hai said happily. "Now, the car can drive to the door, and I am no longer afraid of muddy roads in rainy days. Thanks to Tan Lichun, who is a native of our village, it is really hard to get’ rich and never forget my hometown’." Villager Tan Wen praised Tan Lichun’s actions.

　　"The mountains and rivers in my hometown and my fellow villagers raised me, and I am very proud to be able to do something for the people in my hometown today!" Tan Lichun admits that the idea of doing something for his hometown has a long history. This is just a token of gratitude to his hometown. Facing the praise of the villagers, he feels that he can do something for his hometown. "I have suffered from it since I was a child. At that time, the neighbors often helped me. Now that I am rich, I should care more about the development of my hometown. It is also appropriate to do something for the villagers."

Conflict mediation has me.

During the New Year’s Day holiday, the police of Qiying Police Station found in their work that there was a contradiction between the two people in the jurisdiction because of economic disputes. In order to prevent the contradiction from spreading and intensifying, the police took the initiative to go to the masses and visit them on the spot. In order to mediate contradictions and disputes more reasonably and effectively, the police made full use of the joint mediation center of the Seventh Battalion Police Station to put contradictions on the "desktop" to resolve disputes and promote harmony. In the end, both parties to the contradiction calmed their emotions, opened their hearts and expressed their willingness to take a step back and reach mediation.

Travel safely with me

Patrol prevention and control has me.

In order to further strengthen the overall public security prevention and control, during the New Year’s Day, Haiyuan Public Security increased its patrol prevention and control efforts. The special police squadron and the county armed police squadron organized police forces to patrol key sections and main blocks in the streets, squares, shopping malls and other areas under their jurisdiction every day, and put police forces on the streets to the maximum extent, keeping high-frequency patrols and flashing warning lights, so as to achieve "controlling dead corners, flashing warning lights and meeting police", effectively improving the rate of seeing police and handling affairs on the streets, and effectively deterring all kinds of illegal and criminal activities.

Hidden trouble investigation has me.

The string of safety cannot be relaxed for a moment. During the New Year’s Day, the civilian auxiliary police of Chengguan Police Station went deep into hotels, KTV, gas stations, fireworks and firecrackers retail outlets and other places in the area under their jurisdiction to conduct a full-coverage inspection, focusing on the monitoring facilities of the industry, fire-fighting equipment, safe evacuation routes and the implementation of the real-name registration system, doing a solid job in various safety precautions, discovering and eliminating all kinds of potential safety hazards in time, and comprehensively purifying the social security environment. Minimize the hidden dangers of public safety, resolutely be responsible for defending the soil, do your duty, and respond to the expectations of the masses with practical actions.

Serve the masses with me.

During the New Year’s Day, the civilian auxiliary police of each police station stood on their posts, actively handled the police work together, enthusiastically solved problems for the masses, resolved conflicts and disputes with heart, and became "caring people" of the masses.

"Your warm service is so touching that I enjoy the special treatment of getting an ID card on holiday …" At the household registration window of Qiying Police Station, two people who finished their business gave the police a great praise for their holiday persistence! During the New Year’s Day, in order to facilitate the people in the jurisdiction to handle all kinds of household registration business and further enhance their ability to serve private affairs, Haiyuan Public Security Household Registration Window fully implemented "365 days x24 hours" all-weather service without closing, meeting the needs of people returning from other places, "having no time to go to work and no place to do it after work" and other staff members, which won unanimous praise from the people who applied for permits.

Since the launch of the 4th Shanghai "May 5th Shopping Festival", there are four main features:

First, the new customer group detonated the increase in consumption. Generation Z leads the new consumption trend. For example, the Bailian ZX Creative Fun Field on Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street attracts more than 100,000 "second-time fans" to punch in, among which "post-90s" and "post-80s" account for 44% and 25% respectively.

II. Arrangements for key activities in the next stage

On the one hand, hold the 2023 Shanghai Nightlife Festival. With the theme of "Shanghai at night, it’s never too late to meet each other" and around "neighborhood, waterfront and community", more than 200 special activities, such as sports night and book reading night, will be launched online and offline in June. Will present four characteristics:

The first is to explore new scenes and publish 100 good places for nightlife. Launch a number of waterfront nightlife places such as Putuo Changfeng "88 Tribe" and Suhewan Vientiane World on both sides of Pujiang River; Combined with the characteristic commercial district, a number of popular nightlife places such as limited pedestrian street on University Road and Wufan Night Market in Meiluocheng are launched.

In addition, the list of "24-hour Shanghai" series and "Shanghai WOW! Shanghai trend nightlife guide ",etc.

The second is to expand new fields and hold a night market with the theme of "opening the night". On June 3rd and 4th, a night market with the theme of "Opening the Night" was held in Fengjing, BFC Bund, with the participation of more than 40 enterprises. For example, the whole family facilitated the first launch of the street version of Midnight Food Store. Shiseido’s brand-new young brand engraved the street trend for the first time to create a skin care experience at night; Ctrip Group released the recommendation of "Lighting One River and One River" night tour attractions for the first time, and launched a photo punching point for accompanying rabbit art installations; Shanghai Drama Art Center launched a night-time funny line show; Baixin Bookstore launched live activities around books, poems, vinyl and art for the first time; Tik Tok Life Service creates a "My Sleepless Night" fun punching device; A number of community organizations will also launch fun run, Frisbee, Lu Chong and other special night sports experiences.

The third is to link the new platform and launch a night-time consumption benefit discount. Didi will configure 50,000 "taxi+bicycle" travel packages every day, and carry out surprise taxis and green low-carbon night riding activities. Meituan take-out will issue 30 million yuan "supermarket department store coupons" and food coupons in Shanghai, and link high-quality restaurants to bring group purchase packages on the six-fold line. If you are hungry, you will launch a super topic of "Hungry Night Market" and distribute food and beverage coupons with a total value of nearly 20 million yuan. Barley will issue night performance coupons for the first time in June, covering 389 theater projects and 68 livehouse projects of Barley Platform. Shanghai Guijiu will issue 300 million yuan coupons, launch a new consumption experience together with 100 catering enterprises, and create a new landmark of consumption experience at No.500 Hongqiao Road. For the first time, Gaode Map launched the "66 Nightlife Map" and distributed tens of millions of taxi red envelopes.

　　1. The West doesn’t eat apples on Christmas Eve.

　　In China, as early as before the arrival of Christmas Eve, lovers and friends began to give apples to each other. Because "Apple" and "Ping" have the same sound, they take the meaning of peace and smoothness, hoping for peace and security in the next year. In recent years, the market has also launched apples with Christmas trees and the words "peace and auspiciousness", and various styles have emerged one after another.

　　In the west, there is no such homophonic saying. The habit of eating Ping ‘an fruit didn’t spread until Christmas came into China.
